    Richard Hovannisian on Smyrna at Chapman University on September 5



    Professor Richard Hovannisian will lead off the Fall Lecture Series at
    Chapman University on Wednesday, September 5, at 7 p.m., with an
    illustrated presentation titled "War and Ethnic Cleansing: Smyrna
    1922-2012." The program coincides with the 90th anniversary of Great
    Fire and the end of its thriving Greek and Armenian communities in
    Western Asia Minor in September 1922.

    The event is sponsored by Chapman University's Rodgers Center for
    Holocaust Education; Stern Chair in Holocaust Education; and Sala and
    Aron Samueli Holocaust Memorial Library, under the Direction of
    Dr. Marilyn Harran. The lecture will be held in Beckman Hall, Room
    404, of the Bush Conference Center. Parking is available in the Fred
    L. Barrera Structure (P7) on Sycamore Street and the Lastinger
    Structure (P4) on Walnut Avenue on the Chapman campus in Orange,
    California.

    Professor Hovannisian has been invited to serve as the first
    distinguished Chancellor's Fellow in the Department of History for the
    Fall Semester, during which he will offer a 15-week course for history
    majors on the Armenian Genocide and its historiography.
